Every summer gets the spectacular lightning storms in Uluru- Kata Tjuta and be careful not to hike with lightning strikes because you can get electrocuted especially when it rains any with the water conducts electricity easily. Lightning storms are fun to watch in the area of Yulara by the Ayers Rock Resort and the Ayers Rock campgrounds. Thunderstorms caused from heating of the surface of 50 degrees Celsius on the ground of the moisture from the tropical high pressure zones to develop heating of the atmosphere. The monsoonal moisture is coming from the north of Australia l Please bring water when you are out hiking around the Kata Tjuta The Olgas as known as The Valley of the Winds. I remembered we hiked around Uluru Ayers Rock and the aboriginals are discouraging not to climb Ayers Rock it is way too dangerous and many people got killed from falling while climbing the Rock. I loved Australia and I would want to go back and I want to go see the Fields of Lights and the sunset dinner in Uluru Ayers Rock. Australia is a beautiful country to visit.🇦🇺
That’s a good inside tip. Luckily we were there in the winter time. Would highly recommend traveling in the winter next time around. Thanks for the info, hope you are well : )
Oh no 🙈 I’m sorry the tyre was tears. I’m glad you finally fixed it. Isn’t easy to drive in dirt road but very adventurous what you guys doing. Road in Australia pretty massive. Canyon reminds me of Utah . The footage is beautiful! Hope you guys having a great time in Queensland. Till see you again next week
Thank you, the road there was terrible and tyre was absolutely destroyed as you saw! Luckily our last flat tyre 🤞. This was in Northern Territory about 2.5months ago, we are now in South Australia and it’s very cold down here. We have the next episode already on RU-vid but I should have another one this week too. I’m glad you’re enjoying it! 😃
Wish I'd had the time and opportunity to have visited Uluru and Kata Jduta when I was in Oz, hugely spiritual and spectacular places. Thanks as always for filming your time there and showing us it's beauty. The wild flowers are so lovely BTW! Safe and happy onward travels
In Kings Canyon? They don’t really enforce the rules but people have died unfortunately on those cliffs. I had a friend who was guiding there a few years back and lost someone so we were pretty cautious.
Oh, yeah they stopped that because it was wearing the rock away and the indigenous people consider it a sacred sight. Just being in its presence is a magical experience. Glad you got to visit, say hello to Hungary for us, great country when we visited! 👋
Both Uluru and Mt Augustus are inselbergs, however Uluru is a true monolith, and Mt Augustus is a monocline. So talking true monoliths, Uluru is widely recognised in geological circles as the largest, as you first stated. 😊
Nah we actually cut through Urandangi from Mt Isa and took a crappy dirt road along the border on the NT side to reach the Plenty Hwy, was supposed to be a shortcut..
@@GlobalTravelStories yeah, the Plenty Hwy/Outback Way. Interesting way to get there though! 😂 I haven't done that road, but did do the Sandover. We did a kind of mission trip to Ampilatwatja when I was 16. Cooked a bbq for 200! Those Outback 'roads' are VERY gnarly!
